General Info

About me

Ever since I was little, I’ve enjoyed the act of building and repairing. I find personal satisfaction in helping others and making people happy. I especially enjoy ophthalmology because it is a field that allows me to help patients recover their eyesight so that they can enjoy everyday occurrences. What I enjoy most about being an ophthalmologist is the surgical aspect. The joy I get from checking on patients after successful surgery is incredible; it reinforces my personal happiness and satisfaction.
